| - Came here today due to the overwhelming positive reviews of this restaurant and wanted to see what the hype was all about.
My meal consisted of
1) Sushi Delight Dinner ($12.95)
2) Volcano Roll ($11.95)
Here's the rating:
Environment: 5/5
Service: 5/5
Food: 4/5
Price: 5/5
It's a small restaurant, but had lots of comfortable sofa booth seats. There was the back patio that I did not use due to how hot it was today. They had the A/C on and it was comfortable (not freezing cold or turned down to a point that you can't feel it). They had authentic Japanese music playing in the background (most of them ranging between 80s to late 90s along with some more classic old school Japanese music).
Parking would probably be an issue for the weekday goers, but certainly wasn't an issue for me granted I went on a weekend. There was space at the back so it wasn't too troublesome to park.
Service was excellent. Like the others have reported, they asked multiple times how the food was and if I liked the dinner. Service was also quick (there weren't too many people around). Contrary to a review written on here, the staff here are not Japanese. If you listen to their conversation, you would identify that it is in fact Korean that they are speaking in. So this is not an authentic Japanese restaurant, but that didn't bother me at all.
The food was alright. They didn't follow the traditional Japanese restaurant makis and rolls which I think is what makes this restaurant special. This volcano roll was nowhere near spicy (I could barely taste any spice). The flame added a really cool effect, which I liked and the ingredients tasted well. Where it lost points was the quality of the rice. It felt overly sticky to me so everything just mushes in your mouth and it loses some of the taste. Their Sushi Delight dinner was alright, but slightly underwhelmed by the amount of fish I got, but what can I expect for that price? Still, this is where I've taken away 1 star for.
This brings me to Price! The price I thought was on the cheaper side of things, but the savings achieved were also at the cost of the quality of food. Normal rolls nowadays cost somewhere between $12 - $17, granted they were bigger in size that the volcano roll I tasted. The Sushi Delight was mostly rice with a few pieces of sashimi chopped into tiny blocks and served to you wrapped with an abundance of rice.
Would I return?
Possibly. It's certainly not a bad place to go, but it won't be a place I'd take someone on a date to or where fanciness is a necessity.
